XtremeVel vs Raccoon...The ultimate smackdown!

[MrsXtremeVel]

My poor hubby has had to replant our tomatoes not once, but twice. He set a live trap and caught this guy...

The next night he caught his brother...this guy

I would have sworn the little guy gave him the finger as he was carting him off to a wooded area far, far away. I just goes to show ya....

You mess with XtremeVel's garden again... and you get this!

That would explain all the raccoon-constructed "OXT" protest flyers I've seen around...
"Occupy Xtreme's Trashcan".

LOL...They are wreaking havoc! They just pull out the plants and leave them beside the hole they dig. We think it's the fertilizer he's using. Little boogers are very naughty!

Looks like the 2 I caught in my live trap a couple of years ago and let them loose in a local woods. Ft. Wayne in 2 yrs. Hmmm... seems about right

I bet he handled all of your veggies and had no intention of purchasing any. Dang coonfingerers

personally.. they wouldnt have made it past the first time they got trapped. my dogs dont mix with raccoons. they did a number on my last dog.. boogered him all up. he won though.. rabies free and all.

I found one on the way home ...they were plastered up and down Hwy33 going into the Fort.
I pulled over to jump out and grab one off a telephone pole...Raccoons came at me in a pack from out of NOWHERE! More stealthy than five year old girls, and almost as scary!
I wasn't letting go of one, though! I put up a fight!!
Here you go;

Twice ? More like 4 times for a total of 29 plants... The good news is after catching the second (2) nights ago, haven't lost any.

They aren't damaging the plants... they are just pulling them out of the ground and rooting around in the bottom of the hole for the fertilizer I use... Mixture of bone, blood meal and chicken manure... The problem is unless I find the damage in the morning and replant in the dark, the plants wilt by the time I get home from work.
